oven dried lemons

No fancy dehydrator is needed to make your own oven dried lemon slices at home. This technique works for oranges, limes and other citrus fruits, too!

Oven Dried Lemon Slices

Slice the lemons evenly, from 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick. You can get approximately 8 slices per lemon, depending on the size of the lemon.

Place the slices on a metal cooling rack over a baking sheet or a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Bake in the oven to the lowest temperature (for my oven it's 170ºF/77ºC) until completely dry, approximately 4 to 5 hours.

For even drying, rotate the baking sheets every hour or two.

Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
